really standard 3bet here. I assume he is a lag opening really wide ranges. I would be punishing him here a lot with at least 10% range in this spot, and thus 3betting JJ for balance and for value is absolutely necessary.

I didn't do it because I had to fold vs a 4bet probably. The thing I was missing in my thoughtprocess that the guy will def. not only 4bet or fold

Since we are in CO vs BTN, and he is aggressive so far we can expect villain to 4-bet bluff some amount of the time. Thus 3-bet/shoving becomes very profitable because we make a decent profit when he 4-bet/folds and when he 4-bet/calls we still have decent equity versus him.

I'd especially like a 3-bet/shove here IF we've 3-bet him in recent history.

My apologies. I missed the stack sizes here. My statements were based on 100 BB stacks.

Looks like we are 150 BB deep here. This deep once we 4-bet to let's say $6-$6.5 (24-26 BB) we still have ~125 BB's left so there may be room for him to 5-bet bluff small (although I wouldn't expect this without dynamics).

If he shoves we need to call 125 to win a total of about 300 so our pot odds needed go up to about 42% (versus ~38% if we were 100 BB deep) so it makes it less desirable to 4-bet/call.
